章 757: Chapter 20, Anglo-French Accord

The Near East War intensified, and although it drew the attention of politicians, it hardly caught the eye of the general public.

The Habsburg dynasty and the Ottomans were sworn enemies, as were the Tsarist Government and the Ottomans, not to mention that Greece and Montenegro were also age-old foes of the Ottoman Empire.

Sharing a common enemy, it was only natural for the four countries to form the Anti-Turkish Alliance. A glance through history books would reveal that these nations had been fighting the Ottomans on and off.

The Ottomans were already in decline, having been forced out of the Balkan Peninsula during the first Near East War, while the Asia Minor Peninsula was still too far away from everyone's reach.

The focus of public attention remained on the French Revolution; although the Paris Commune movement had ended, its political influence was profound.
